MonthBalance of the monthMinimum balance between 10th to the last day of the monthQualifying BalanceJanuaryRs.14000Rs.14000Rs.14000FebruaryRs.25500,Rs.20500Rs.20500Rs.20500MarchRs.20500Rs.20500Rs.20500AprilRs.20500,Rs.24250,Rs.20000Rs.20000Rs.20000MayRs.20000,Rs.21500Rs.21500Rs.21500JuneRs.21500,Rs.23000Rs.23000Rs.23000TotalRs.119500

Here, principal for 1 month = Rs.119500, rate of interest = 4%, time = 112 year

Interest = Rs. (119500×4×112)100 = Rs.398.33
